My dressier watch, and my watch for everything else. Still need to paint the G on my watch illumination button though.

Is Tissot Touch a reliable watch ?

Absolutely, in my experience.  I currently own several, and they've all been flawless.  The originals are not as waterproof as I like, but I've never tested their waterproofness.  They have some new Diver models that are on my list and have 200m water resistance ratings.

kwkarth, did your Tissot Touch come with leather band ?

I have a stainless steel Kenneth Cole Reaction watch. Certainly not as nice as some of the ones you guys have, but it has sentimental value to me.
 
It's "water resistant", although in practicer I have found that on very humid days there will be some condensation on the inside of the glass, which will dissipate over time.
 
How do you guys clean your stainless steel watches? Over the years, it has accumulated some grime in the area between the links, which I can't reach with a cloth or anything like that. Is there an effective cleaning method that won't damage the polished finish?

Water resistant watches can be washed with soap and water with the stem down, and the bands scrubbed with a brush to remove grime.  Do don't want to immerse it though.

One is all titanium, including the band, the other two are titanium cases which came with custom rubber/silicone bands with titanium deployment clasps.  I don't believe I've ever seen a T-touch with a leather band.  The attachment point is custom so conventional bands cannot be used.

Nice post by USG on cleaning a water resistant wristwatch.  For a non water resistant watch, the best thing to do is to remove the band and clean it separately from the watch itself.  When it's dry, reattach.

100%...........   and also for vintage watches with dubious seals.  If you're not sure, follow KW's instructions.

 
For watches that get condensation on the crystal, we used to dry them over 25 watt light bulbs with the stems out.

Does anyone know where is the most reliable place to buy watches, like an Omega Constellation (similar to Head-Fi and Audiogon)?
